WHY YOU’LL LOVE IT
The StroboStomp HD is built around precision.
Its strobe-style display gives a much finer visual indication of pitch than a typical needle or LED tuner, making it especially useful for accurate intonation work, recording and players who want their instrument as precisely tuned as possible.
The large display also makes it exceptionally easy to read on stage, while the multi-colour system allows different presets and tuning configurations to be identified quickly.
DETAILED FEATURES & BENEFITS
±0.1 Cent Accuracy
The StroboStomp HD offers tuning accuracy to within 0.1 cent.
This makes it suitable not only for ordinary tuning but also for:
-
Guitar intonation
-
Studio work
-
Instrument setup
-
Alternate tuning
-
Pedal steel
-
High-precision live tuning
Large HD Display
The tuner uses a large 417-segment LCD display with LED backlighting.
The strobe pattern and note name are designed to remain highly visible, including in bright stage and outdoor conditions.
Multi-Colour Display
Different tuning presets can be assigned different colours.
This makes it easier to identify alternate tunings quickly during live use.
Sweetened Tunings
The StroboStomp HD includes more than 135 Sweetened Tuning presets.
These compensated tuning systems are designed for particular instruments and tuning situations rather than simply tuning every note to mathematically equal temperament.
This can produce a more musically balanced result on instruments such as guitar, bass and pedal steel.
Guided Tunings
The tuner also supports guided tuning configurations.
These are useful for alternate tunings where the display can guide the player string-by-string through the required notes.
THREE PERFORMANCE MODES
The StroboStomp HD can operate in three different performance modes.
True Bypass
True bypass removes the tuner electronics from the signal path when the pedal is disengaged.
Buffered Mode
Buffered mode keeps the internal buffer in the signal path.
This can help preserve signal strength across long cable runs and larger pedalboards.
Monitor Mode
Monitor mode keeps the tuning display active continuously while allowing the audio signal to remain available.
This is useful when you want constant visual tuning information without muting the instrument.
CONCERT PITCH ADJUSTMENT
Reference pitch can be adjusted over a broad range of approximately:
A = 390Hz to 490Hz
This makes the tuner useful for ensembles and instruments that do not always use standard A440 tuning.
TRANSPOSITION
The StroboStomp HD supports transposition from:
-6 to +5 semitones
This makes it easier to use with drop tuning, capo configurations and transposing instruments.
POWER OUTPUT
The StroboStomp HD includes a 9V DC power-through output capable of supplying up to 1A when an appropriate external power supply is connected.
This can allow another compatible 9V pedal to be powered from the tuner, helping reduce the number of separate power connections required on a pedalboard.
PETERSON CONNECT
The tuner is compatible with Peterson Connect.
This allows:
-
Preset management
-
Custom tuning configuration
-
Display colour adjustment
-
Firmware updates
-
Personalised tuning setups
Connection is made using the tuner’s Micro-USB port.

HOW IT COMPARES
StroboStomp HD vs Conventional Pedal Tuner
Most conventional pedal tuners prioritise speed and simplicity.
The StroboStomp HD adds considerably greater tuning resolution, Sweetened Tunings, alternate bypass modes and deeper customisation.
StroboStomp HD vs Clip-On Tuner
A clip-on tuner senses vibration through the instrument.
The StroboStomp HD works directly from the instrument signal, making it particularly suitable for loud stages and professional pedalboards.
StroboStomp HD vs Basic Strobe Tuner
The Peterson adds a large colour display, preset management, extensive Sweetened Tunings and USB connectivity alongside true strobe accuracy.

FAIR DEAL MUSIC EXPERT VERDICT ★★★★★
Best suited for: Players who want professional-level tuning accuracy, a large stage-friendly display and more flexibility than a conventional pedal tuner.
Customers usually upgrade from: Basic chromatic pedal tuners, clip-on tuners and standard LED tuning pedals.
Most commonly paired with: Professional pedalboards, recording rigs, touring setups and instruments requiring alternate or compensated tunings.
Our tip: Explore Peterson’s Sweetened Tunings rather than using the standard chromatic setting exclusively. The compensated presets can make a noticeable difference to how chords and intervals feel across the instrument.
Showroom feedback: The StroboStomp HD is one of the easiest professional tuners to read on a dark or brightly lit stage, and its 0.1-cent accuracy makes it useful for both live tuning and serious setup work.
